Abstract: A new method for determining the dynamic friction coefficient of explosives is presented. The method combines the physical model of friction sensitivity with theoretical analysis and numerical calculations. Experimental measurements of the dynamic friction coefficient of steel indicate that the proposed method is effective, provides secure and reliable data, and can be used to calculate the dynamic friction coefficient between cyclonite (RDX) and steel.

Keywords: dynamic friction coefficient, powdery explosive, numerical calculation, RDX.
